Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Funnily enough Germany was the richest nation in the years running up to WW1. And then after at least Berlin was one of the most tolerant places in the world before the Nazis came to power. Would still be considered extremely progressive. I do wonder sometimes if the extreme wealth led to progressiveness, WW1 never got to Berlin after all. The Nazis used the decent of the populace into poverty because of the sanctions of Versailles as fire for their cause. Boogymen were provided by the Nazis in the form of minorities such as the Jews to justify abhorrent behaviors.
I see many many similarities in the US today. From wealth disparity to the boogyman of the "immigrants" and so on. Instead of Versailles it's the sanctions of the environment etc etc.
I would say it has nothing to do with environmental regulations, but with lower taxes for the super rich and other stuff like that, which came from increasing influence of rich people in politics.
That lead to increasing poverty, which (combined with lots of propaganda from media owned by rich people) leads to increasingly radical conservative voters, which only lead to more poverty.
Oh don't get me wrong I know it's more complicated, it's what they use as a whistle for their "culture wars"
Looking back on it, I dont even know how I was able to misread your comment lol.
Dude stop, republicans suck and they use the same political tactics as the nazis but they're nowhere near as horrible than them yet.
